Was this an attempt to get into the Guinness Book of World Records for most terrible movie lines? Because it should've gotten in. There are just enough lingering so-bad-it's-good nostalgic strings to get me through to the end. Good thing the cast is mostly likeable.

Doesn't deserve its bad rap.

The things I do for Oscar prep. 

I’m not huge on the original, so I don’t really care for comparisons, but I’ll it the lush production is pretty impressive. Will not be mad if it gets tech noms tomorrow. The wooden script lets it down of course, rendering it hollow.

I can't say I was bored, but I could never get over how annoying the lead is.

edit: docked a star in hindsight after learning that Annie Hardy shares her character's views so the film was not acting as a sloppy critique of MAGA behaviour but is instead culpable and as a result, reprehensible.

Objectively considered the best film of all-time when I was 8.

Wild.

Jarring to watch this while halfway through season 1 of The Simpsons.

Edit: I genuinely thought it ended and didn’t see they were doing a mid and post credits gag. Docked a half star for lame structure.

Yeah, this was one of those movies that I used to watch all the time just because it had 'Jack' in the title. It's fine, for a 90s kids movie, the biggest challenge is the suspension of disbelief for the conceit. I already banked that though, so...

Confused by the people calling the previous one a masterpiece and this one a travesty. They're the same amount of mediocre.

A bone dry sociopathic satire. I loved it. I'm aware all my friends are hating it.

Maybe as someone who didn't feel like an adult until I left my family behind in another country, I found it more affecting? Though it's not like I put them in a hole or anything.

Here is a list of movies that came out in 1995 in no particular order:

• Heat
• 12 Monkeys
• Fallen Angels
• Batman Forever

• The City of Lost Children
• Babe
• Se7en
• Apollo 13

Now guess which film was the only one Oscar nominated for Best Cinematography ???
